The team behind Android O did an AMA on Reddit, answering burning questions from the populace. The thread (hit the Source link) is well organized, so do check it out, but here are some highlights.

Project Trebble – phones that launch with Android O will have Trebble out of the box. This project makes it faster and easier for manufacturers to keep their devices updated by providing a clearer separation between hardware and the maker’s software. This should reduce the issues with canceled updates because the chipset maker didn’t update its drivers.
